Client/Group progress summary	This week was great, the changes we made worked really well towards her goals. she did a whole practice while under observation which is a huge step for her.
Reflection and self-evaluation	Having the opportunity to observe her entire practice was great for both of us, she had restraint when she wanted to talk and held back. Removing breath cues was helpful for her and she still had a nice breath.
Final Client/Group Report	After seeing your client/group (for at least 4 sessions including interactive intake) Please remember practicum is a learning experience. You’ll learn more from sharing what’s accurate than from what might “look good”. Things you did well, not so well, problems and questions are all valid and useful tools to teach you. We can’t serve you to become the best clinician you can be if you don’t share your challenges and mistakes. Success is anything from which you learn. You can continue to add Session entries after submitting this Final Client/Group Report.
Plan for next session	We are continuing to build on the progress we have been making and we are going to add a triangle pose we went through it at the end of our time because she expressed she wanted to challenge herself and this is a advanced pose for her and i believe will be beneficial.
